Poem, Homesickness

I could tell a storm was rolling in; the sky was gloomy and dark.

The clouds emerged as the storm inched closer toward me. 

I can’t take this anymore; 

this place is becoming my prison. 

Slowly closing in on me.  Everyday is like a nightmare creeping 

closer to the end that would never come. I miss home more than ever now, 

everything reminds me it. This feeling makes me even more uncomfortable. 

Staying here alone…

 all alone. 

Okay :) So this is a short poem (it was supposed to be an extract/excerpt form a short story that I intended to write but never got around to doing it) about being homesick. No I am not homesick now, I'm actually sitting at home and writing this :) Yeah, thats about it. I hope you enjoy my cheesy writing :P

Chris Huntington

Hello :D sorry I haven't been writing for a long time, I have been like super busy with school :'(. Yes I am in highschool and I strongly dislike it. My lunch is at like 1 o clock. I mean who eats at 1?!?!?! oh well, my school is weird.

Sooo, today my grade talked to CHRIS HUNTINGTON :D he is so cool, he taught us how to make our writing better and yeah. I never knew he taught at my school :3 I guess that pretty cool... I'm going to be kind and share what he said with you guys because I can ;)

First thing! try to have 2 stories going on at once or at least 2 events/important things going on at the same time, that way the reader is interested.

Second thing: Make it empathic! describe emotions so that the reader can relate to the character (you know make them spazz out over all the feels :P)

Lastly (And I dont necessarily agree with this) is write what you know, you have experienced it yourself so it will be easier for you to write :)

Kay well thats it really :) I'm so sorry for not posting much (like at all) but I mean like nobody reads this anyway :)

Trapped

Ok so I was coming back from a hospital and was heading towards the door with my mom. When we got to the door, it was locked. So we went to the other door and that was locked too, now I started to get freaked out and a really weird scenario came to mind. Heres what I thought could happen... Yes I know I have an extremely interesting brain ;) anyway enjoy :D

As I left the room I said goodbye to Leo and tried to close the door so that he wouldn't wake up. But as I opened it, a high pitch squeal came from the un-oiled hinges of the door. Luckily Leo was still asleep and I quietly slipped out. As the door closed, I accidentally bumped into a lady carrying a tray. She said sorry and walked away hurriedly, I ignored it at the time, just thought it was really weird. I wanted to get home before the rush hour started so I walked as fast as I could to the car park door. I grabbed the handle and pulled. It didn't open. I tired pushing. It didn't open. I thought hmmmm well this is unusual, so I walked down to the other exit. That one was locked too. I started heading for the main exit, thought i could walk up the ramp to the car park. After a few minutes of walking i approached the door and once again it was locked. I tried pushing the handle up and down in a frantic attempt to leave, because as far as I know there are only 5 exits to the hospital. Several tries late I gave up and was just about to slide down the wall and sit there until somebody came, but the light started to flicker. Again I disregarded it as if it were nothing, immediately  I heard the creek of an IV drip machine, and it was becoming louder. I pivoted on the heels of my feet and ran. I ran as fast as I could, as far as my legs would carry me. Until I came to a dead end. So I ran back and dashed down the other hallway. there I slipped on something wet, and sticky, and warm, and red! IT WAS BLOOD, blood that was collecting in a little puddle on the floor. I got up and my hands started to shiver and my legs started to wobble. I wasn't sure if they could support me weight but I tried to stand up. Someone came behind me and clamped their hand filled with anaesthesia. So much that It was overwhelming and my eyes began to droop. The last thing I could remember was that face, covered in a green mouth mask and head cap, with blue eyes that seemed so icy they could freeze hell. And all he said was "welcome to the hospital, once you come in you can never leave" 

 so what do you think? tell me if there is any way I can improve or make it more interesting. dont forget to follow and comment :)

Stuff about this blog

Hello :) whats up? well yeah as you can tell this is a new blog, I just started it like yesterday... Im new to this whole blog thing, and I actually started to blog because I had to for one of my assignments. And it seems pretty nice. Kind of like a journal but online and other people can read it. If I owned a journal I would probably write some really deep personal stuff. But I don't use journals because, well to put it simply: I'm not bothered... so YAY for being lazy! anyway this blog will probably be about what I have read and what I'm reading now and I might give you some reviews. I say some because I dont generally write reviews, well good ones at least. So I will just write about my opinion. And forgive my grammar. If I am writing something really formal (e.g. a story) then I will actually bother with punctuation and grammar and other stuff but now.. well im not really typing anything important so screw it :) im not going to do all of that now. so on to my next point.... i do like to write stories because it allows my imagination to grow and i have a really large imagination as you will soon learn. so that will be the journal part of it.... Ill explain why I called this blog "the crumpled purple journal" in the next post. but now ill just tell you about me. I was born in singapore. lived there most of my life. hmmm I like music, like listening to it. I dont mind playing it, i play the violin and just started learning the guitar, so you be the judge of that. I love to draw and paint. I prefer to draw because i feel that i can make pretty cool pieces with a pencil compared to colour and strokes. Thats just my opinion. So thats me! in like 3 sentences, Ugh reading back on this i noticed that there are no paragraphs and just a bunch of text. thats horrible to look at. so ill put in paragraphs next time :) sorry :( i know i hate looking at just a bunch of text. it make me really bored and then  i stop reading. kk ill shut up now sorry ;) just that i have a lot to say so yeah. Until the next post dear readers :) thanks for actually reading all of this. ill be surprised if anybody does :P

ok good by
:P
